I've found quite difficult when I started to thought about all the
rights. Pictures, texts, or just a names, all needs permision
from owner to be used in and the difficulty isnt contacting all
the authors,
What thing needs author rights?
It commond question, cause many people are writing their own
things, websites, links, downloading texts and pictures.
How do you run your own matherials?
Another point of view is "open source", when you dont want to
comercialize your staff. Even than I thought you need rights. I
thought that makes it open source will makes it easier. But
eventhou I feel rights are needed so,
Does "open source" need authors rights?
:R

I'm having trouble understanding your post...mabey rewrite it.
Isn't the absence of authors rights the entire point of open source?

Copyright is a massive issue. If you are publishing something that is important, or you don’t want it abused in any way, then I would consult a lawyer.
Anything that is your intellectual property, IE, something that has come out of your head is protected under copyright in many countries. Your rights will differ depending on the country you published it in.
If you want to open the rights on your work more, then you can look in to the creative commons license. It’s a publishing license that gives you a bit more control over how you want your work to be distributed. For example, you can say that your work is free to use in whatever way wanted as long as you are given a credit for it:
https://creativecommons.org/license/
You could use the GPL so that your work would be free for anyone to use in anyway as long as any work coming from it goes under the same license.
See the wikipedia entry for GPL:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gpl
Also, some more info about what you're talking about would be good as well!

Controversial topic...
As being the one who invented the "interrupted weave" and 125 degree jump while spinning
I just gave it to the public for the benefit of all and didn't patent it on HoP by videotaping and naming it the FireTom-Swirl.... 
Maybe consider this one

As to follow on J.W.Goethe (fellow German poet, scientist and philosopher) we cannot really claim any idea to be uniquely ours as it has undergone so many influences...
Intellectual Property rights IMO is another way to make the buck - just like any property rights issue... Hence it's OK in this world to follow the system and beat it with it's own methods...
...unless we are all realizing that it's cows poo, that we're living on the same rock and that "everyone goes to the same destination on a different road" (NYC-Cabdriver)
